I think this story sums up what is wrong with members of the so-called pro-palestinian “human rights” groups.
Kate Burton, 25, a worker with the Al-Mezan human rights group in Gaza, was seized at gunpoint Wednesday with her parents, Hugh and Helen, in the southern town of Rafah. The parents had come to Gaza on vacation to visit their daughter, officials said.Burton told the BBC after her release that she could not say a bad word about her captors, who always asked whether they needed anything, and added that she hoped to continue her human rights work in the Gaza Strip.
Whether it is Kate Burton or Rachel Corrie, the neo palestinians can do no wrong, even when they are doing a heck of a lot wrong. And if being kidnapped at gunpoint is not reason for condemning the terrorists or re-evaluating your sympathy for them, then all the more so when all that they’ve done is kill some Jews.

Remember when Fisk got attacked in Afghanistan? Same pattern, he wouldn’t criticize his attackers.
Well I find that their is an Ironic contraditcion arising during this dead blog of yours,so for the sake of some interest lets steam it up a little shall we?
I do believe that it must be very difficult for someone like u-Gods apparently chosen people, to believe that the same people you are preaching against are those who treat their “hostages” with complete dignity, yes i do see the pattern occuring from the “terrorist” captors, but is it soo hard to believe that unlike SOME hypocrites, many middle eastern organisations are not interested in capturing people for their own sexual appitites (i.e Abu ghraib,Israelly prisons etc. etc. etc.) but rather to strike attention to their political aims- wich merely are to free the a few arab victims and provide their people with the peace they have longed for and deserve! Despite that my sympathy does go to Israel, since Kate Burtons testiment cannot be put in Israels scrap book, next to the holocast victims to promote your propaganda and biasm- to the world-BUT not to worry, I’m sure that your twisted government WILL find a way to twist the story of the generouse “Terrorists” just like it has with the Durrah affair and turn it to their own benifit!
PS. I would sincerely advise you to watch your wordin in general, especially your stereotyping
First of all I think what is seriously twisted is your mentioning of the Jewish victims as if they are one of Israels propaganda, I do agree with you when you mention that the arabs do deserve their peace but we also deserve ours, we should learn to live together in peace, but as you can see this is very difficult especially in this current situation. Your Islamic organisations have noble intentions and if the captors treat the hostages decently then why are we complaining??? Matter of the fact is that just as jews are dying so are muslims and christians!
